Introduction

This is a simple instance of upstream Node Pilot.

Prerequisites

  • Make sure you have a wallet
  • From the sidebar click on Applications
  • Click on Node Pilot

Deployment

  • Fill in the instance name: it's used to reference the node-pilot in the future.

  • Minimum CPU allowed is 8 cores and minimum memory allowed is 8192.

  • Dedicated flag to retrieve only dedeicated nodes

  • Certified flag to retrieve only certified nodes

  • Choose the location of the node

    • Region
    • Country
    • Farm Name
  • Select a node to deploy your node-pilot instance on.

Or you can select a specific node with manual selection.

  • When using the flist you get a node pilot instance ready out-of-box. You need to get a public ipv4 to get it to works.

After that is done you can see a list of all of your deployed instances

Click on Visit to go to the registration page of your Node Pilot instance!

You can go to https://publicip and configure your node-pilot. You can upload a backup to the VM via ssh as well if you have a backup of a previous instance.

What change compared to upstream node-pilot, we have out-of-box a transparent pre-filled blockchain database for some blochain (currently Fuse and Pokt as proof-of-concept). You can start one of theses blockchain in no-time and it will be automatically nearly sync already without the requirement of the full space locally nor downloading everything and killing bandwidth.
